Eyes held wide
open
Yet vision unclear
Lips often
tremble
No words reach your ear
Eyes often blinded
By welling of tears
Tongue also vacant
Beholden to fear
Hold me in
your heart
Days, a month, or years
After
lifetimes pass
You will find me here
Hold me in
your arms
Hold tight, draw me near
My hopes and
my dreams
You’re all I hold dear
